(difficulty of wide spectral width and height output on realizing)
In order to realize the light of height output, such as following means:1) substantial amounts of electric current is injected into SLD;2) fiber waveguide is increased Length;It is contemplated that with 3) increase ridge width.However, these means have the following problems.
In the case where 1) injecting a large amount of electric currents, in order to realize the burden increase of the heat dissipation in height output, SLD encapsulation, The reason for this is cost increase, because the upper limit is limited by the hot saturation exported.In addition, injecting the situation of a large amount of electric currents Under, because SLD is also easy to vibration in the case of slight end face reflection, it is therefore desirable to make SLD with significantly lower than above-mentioned The current work of the temporal electric current of hot saturation.
2) increase fiber waveguide length in the case of, due to light before light is fetched to outside in longer path It is exaggerated, so the intensity increase of light, but have the following disadvantages.
One has the disadvantage that promotion passes through the amplification of the light of stimulated emission, and it influences the shape of optical emission spectroscopy.Specifically, with The length of fiber waveguide, you can with the length increase in the path for amplifying light, luminescent spectrum width reduces.Therefore, low coherence drops Low (easily disturbing).In other words, low coherence and output are in balance (trade-off) relation.
Another has the disadvantage the size increase of semiconductor light-emitting elements, and this size for being unsuitable for encapsulation reduces, and entirely Waveguide loss increase, this may reduce light conversion efficiency.
In the case of 3) increase ridge width, the density of electric current can be concentrated by reducing and increase photoemissive area come Increase output.However, the width for the light beam to be exported adds corresponding amount, and light source is difficult to use in application. Therefore, ridge width also has the upper limit.In addition, also existing, by increasing, the quantity for the pattern that ridge width can be guided is increased to ask Topic.
4) as another method for the light for realizing height output, it is contemplated that when spontaneously launching light before light is exaggerated Increase the method for spectral width.However, in order to achieve this it is needed changing design, for example, separating in corresponding light-emitting zone Injecting electrode, or only change the region that will be made up of different active layer materials or with different active layer structures. In the previous case, it is necessary to separate electrode and drive them with single driver, and structure is uneconomical.In latter feelings Under condition, because structure is very difficult to manufacture, for example, crystal needs regrowth, so cost is very high.First, in both approaches In, because the electric current to be consumed may substantially increase, so the efficiency of light source is further reduced.
(summary)
Using the SLD100 according to the present embodiment, by by the first quantum well layer with highest Carrier Injection Efficiency 201 the first emission wavelength is placed in the center of SLD100 luminescent spectrum width, it can be ensured that height output.In addition, by making it Its quantum well layer plays a part of increasing spectral width, it is possible to achieve wide spectral width and high output.This expression overcomes The problem of above-mentioned " trade-off relationship between low coherence and output ".
In addition, being included according to the active layer 20 of the present embodiment:With luminous corresponding to longer than the first emission wavelength second Second quantum well layer 202 of the luminous combination level energy gap of wavelength;With corresponding to than luminous multiple with the first quantum well layer 201 Close the 3rd quantum well layer of the luminous combination level energy gap of the 3rd short emission wavelength of the corresponding emission wavelength of energy level energy gap 203.It is thus possible to increase the luminescent spectrum width centered on the first emission wavelength, while realizing height output.
Self-evident, the quantum well layer 20a of active layer 20 quantity is not limited to three, and can be four or more It is individual.Specifically, three or more quantum well layers in addition to the first quantum well layer 201 can be set.For example, can set Multiple second quantum well layers 202 and multiple 3rd quantum well layers 203.As shown in Fig. 5 part A, except near current blocking Outside first quantum well layer 201 of structure 32 (referring to Fig. 2 left side), quantum well layer 20a-2,20a-3,20a-4,20a- 5 ... quantity, preferably more than 4.Quantum well layer 20a sum is 5 to 30, preferably 10 to 20.
